Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract The author argues for an increased emphasis on computing in the training of statisticians and in their professional practice. He describes some of the current technological challenges and demonstrates the importance for statisticians of becoming more active in computational aspects of their work and specifically in producing software for carrying out statistical procedures. Such a reorientation will require substantial changes in thinking, pedagogy and infrastructure; the author mentions some of the conditions required to achieve these goals.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
